Summerbridge student teachers are young, fun, creative, and motivated individuals, ready to take on the challenge of teaching in an educational program. Our student teachers are between the ages of 16 to 22 and come from secondary schools and universities from around the world, including Hong Kong, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. They are a diverse group bringing a variety of talents and backgrounds to the program. Common to all student teachers is a desire to help young people, a willingness to work in an intense and rewarding environment, and a commitment to both teaching and learning.
With the help and guidance of experienced teachers, Summerbridge student teachers are responsible for developing curriculum, teaching classes, planning extra-curricular activities, and evaluating student performance. Student teachers work to create a community that celebrates academic achievement, creativity, individuality, and risk-taking.
